Long time with no posting from me due to the camp known as gascit. The backpacker tent went in the end but within hours I was wishing I had the mountain hardware tent if only for the drying space after pitching tents in the rain on Friday. I had a fun but tiring time (signified by me nearly falling asleep at work infront of the comp for the 2 days after!). Before anybody sends me a message I will answer the questions everyone seems to be asking.. prior to gascit 'No Dr T isn't going despite it being a Scout and Guide event' ... at gascit I seemed to have everybody asking the M question (there were obviously too many old married of our era there!), still can't understand why it was being asked now? Anyway back to Gascit spent some enjoyable time on our Sub-camp of Space (where of course nobody can hear you scream (particularly some of the kids)) with Granville who was very amusing with his descriptions of some of the SAGGA quirks! Auntie Mad came to visit on occasions to see how we were and even help the 1/4 raddish (aka 1st/4th Reddish) to sort out their washing up probs (ie they argued over it all the time and didn't quite seem to get it done! We had PL arguements on the sub-camp so had the whole camp experience there!

Next leave is PH ... why is all my leave related to Guiding this year? I plan to stop this sometime before the new year with a long weekend with Dr T somewhere ... suggestions in the message box (Paris is already out as he doesn't like speaking French {and if you'd heard his accent you'd know why ;)})

So back to life here with 3.5 hours OT on the tower this morning and the Portsmouth & Southsea Show with a Friend tomorrow... Dr T awaits next weekend :)
